| The indicator shows eight wind directions by means of LEDs. The sensors are reed contacts powered by a permanent magnet. The mechanical co...

| The monttor is intended for use in relatively small spaces (like living rooms). The sensor is a readily available LM335 from National Semi...

| RC-5 is the Philips /Sony standard for infra-red [IR] remote control of audio /video equipment. The circuit and the listing given enable...

| Although good and inexpensive integrated analogue-to-digital (A-D) converters are now readily available, it may be instructive to build o...

| The indicator shows when a fish has taken the bait. Until that happy moment (at least for the angler), the bite sensor is open, so that b...

| It is sometimes necessary to make a telephone conversation audible to more than one person at either end or to make a tape recording of i...

| The time-determining element in the present circuit is capacitor C1, which is charged via a current source based on T1. The voltage acros...

| A solid-state bell-push is far more robust than the usual mechanical type. The touch contact may be made from an audio socket, which has...

| Voltage doublers are frequently encountered in electronic circuits. The present one is a variation that is of interest since most digital...

| The circuit detects a change in video information and uses this to switch on an alarm in a closed-circuit television guard system of a vi...
